I decided to visit this place after the recommendation of local people. Drove 1,5hour and figured out there are no entry tickets for that day. Fortunately the cashier was so nice and sold me one ticket, but better to not count on that luck 🍀 and buy tickets online :)
The cave is really worth seeing. Beautiful rock formations, stalactites, stalagmites, breathtaking colours of water. The trip takes one hour and it's an easy way for everyone.

I’m amazed by the caves. This place is so beautiful and exceeded my expectations.
- First of all you should buy the tickets in advance online as you might not find availability on the day, specially weekends, public holidays and high season.
- You will need to be at least 10 minutes before the booked time as they start the tour on time and then you can’t join the group.
- comfortable clothes and flat shoes are a must as inside de cave there’s lots of humidity and the paths can be slippery and wet.
- The visit is in Spanish but you can download an audio guide in several languages.
- No pictures or videos are allowed 😞
PS. The pictures I posted are from the local brochures and the sales office

A very pleasant surprise. The cave is big, has many different halls with beautiful lakes and a variety of gorgeous rock formations. I didn't expect it to be this beautiful.
Minor minuses - the 45 minute guided visit is a bit too short to take in all the impressive scenery and we couldn't understand much of what the guide explanations as we found his accent to be too heavy (our spanish is not very good).

The most sophisticated design and pattern, architectures ever created by Nature!
Unparalled to any other caves i’ve ever visited!

Breathtaking. The guided tour was in Spanish and although there is a QR code for the English tour online, there was no internet connection in the caves so we could not connect to it. Still, our guide was extremely knowledgeable and it was truly a fabulous experience. Was not a fan of having a photographer when you enter (she was taking photos to sell? later...never saw the photos).

Tour took around 40 minutes, cave bigger than expected. Your tickets include the caves, castle entrance and museum. No photos allowed to be taken, if you get caught they will stand beside you and watch you deleted them.

Surreal place, worth the ticket price. Better to buy tickets online at least a day before to get the time slot you want.
If coming from Portugal - remember about the time change to CET in Spain.

The tour is 50min long, shows very beautiful cave views with stalactites and their reflections in the underground waters. The groups are leaving every 15min. The guidance is in very quick Spanish, audioguides in English, French and Italian are available. We did not book tickets in advance, arrived at 12:00, bought tickets at 12:05 for the tour starting at 12:15. Each group counts about 50 people, so who wants to cheat and make photos (like I did) can just be behind and make sure the guide is not watching and the next group is not coming. Just make your camera soundless, do not use flash or tripod. Enjoy the pictures.

Awesome experience! The caves are indeed marvelous. There are different formations and deposits and different areas and rooms to traverse. The tour is a nice length, they say about 50 minutes, but it somehow feels just a bit rushed because there are so many details to take it. You could really spend a whole day looking at every detail. Would definitely recommend a visit, especially on a hot day. The temperature inside is a cool 14°C.

This place is a must see wonder of the world, it's mostly natural cave will impress you.

The tour involves a walking tour thru a mineral cave surrounded by cristal clear waters, don't worry you won't get wet nor need any special gear, just bring comfortable walking shoes and light clothes since it gets kinda warm inside the cave.

The tour will take about 45 mins down thru 1.3 kms ( 0.85 mi) of natural rock formations inside earth, the place is super clean and you will not spot insects, odors nor any common form of life, the place is filled with copper and minerals which generates an alkaline and naturally pristine ecosystem

An amazing, extremely impressive cave that is very much worth the €12.50 admission price (which also includes admission to the Museo del Jamón and the Castillo). The public tour is about a 1 km walk that's very manageable if you can handle low ceilings. Photos are not allowed, so I can't post any with this review but you can easily find some online.

5 star for the cave, indeed. It's the most beautiful cave i have ever visited. It's definitely worth the visit. And I would love to come back if i ever visit spain again.
The staff were also friendly.
It's just a pity that no pictures are allowed, even without flash. In fact, i know the place from a post of one of the social media flatform, otherwise i would never know this cave exists.
Taking pictures should be allowed, as i would love to see the picture one day, and remember how beautiful this cave was. And i came from a long way (different continent).

Note: book ticket in advance.

It is worth to visit, they are well organized, we booked on line for the 13:30 tour with takes a little more than an hour to go to the caves in a path just over 1 kilometer. The guide has a in depth knowledge of caving and the cave itself. The place is beautiful, make sure to wear comfortable and no slipping shoes.

Incredible but no disabled facilities and guides only speak Spanish (my problem not theirs) pre booking an absolute must kill

Overwhelming experience, must see - if you like places that were adapted for tourists. Only thing - it is a bit ‘claustrophobic’ inside, though the cave is enormous, with several passages throughout its galleries. No photos allowed inside.

Very impressive and absolutely marvellous, a must see in this area! Simply stunning. Only pity is that by booking your online- ticket, you cannot choose to visit the caves only, you have to choose the combined ticket which also allows you to visit the castle and the museum. The guide took his time, but every now and then it feels like speeding instead of taking time to absorb all you see. Audioguide is linked on your ticket and available in several languages. Wonderful experience!

A trail of caves about 2.4 km long with stunning views of the mineral deposits in the form of stalagmites and stalactites in the beautiful town of Aracena.
